5.00Last Sunday, my family and I did this Soul Tour. We have to say the whole experience was truly amazing and, honestly, it was worth living, because we learnt a lot of information about this splendid basilica and the genius who created it. Moreover, Núria, the guide, was very kind and close to the group through the whole tour: her explanations about this wonderful building and about A. Gaudí were clear and full of details. In addition, we ended the tour wanting to visit the Sagrada Família from the inside. Highly recommended for both adults and teenagers because all the information is given in a simple but engaging way to understand.
